General Hospital actresses, Finola Hughes (Anna Devane), Jane Elliot (Tracy Quartermaine), Nancy Lee Grahn (Alexis Davis), Maura West (Ava Jerome), and Michelle Stafford (Nina Clay), spill all to TV Guide Magazine!
In a tell all interview with TV Guide these powerful women Daytime Drama discuss everything from women in the workforce, to, sex on the set, social media, and family.
Daytime Emmy award winner, Jane Elliot is a long time ABC soap actress, and started on General Hospital as Tracy Quartermaine in 1978. Elliot hasn’t been shy about discussing the treatment of women in the workforce, particularly her own situation when she first started with ABC. Things have since changed over at the network and she explains, “Over the years, we have had several women running ABC Daytime and executive producing GH, and they were quite male-eccentric. They were very busy sucking up to the guys on the show and would dismiss the rest of us.” It remains cryptic as to whom exactly Jane was referring.
On the topic of social media, the women didn’t hesitate to express their complete disliking of cyber bullying. Some think that cyber bullying only refers to high school teens or “mean girls” but in actuality it happens in many other scenarios as well. Celebrities receive an enormous amount of hate via social media. Especially Twitter. So called “fans” can actually be pretty brutal. It was reveled that one of the actresses has been called a “fat cow” on social media.
Also regarding social media, actress Maura West brought up the importance of family time. She has five children at home and explained that before she walks in from work, she turns her phone off so that she can devote her attention to her family.
Nancy Lee Grahn is never scared to tell it like it is, to get down and dirty and outright raunchy. Grahn revealed that she has had sex on the set of Santa Barbara as well as the set of General Hospital.

While Jake still doesn’t realize he is Jason Morgan, he remains under Helena Cassadine’s mind control. Even though Helena told Jake he was Jason, she has the power to make him forget it all, and that’s exactly what she did. A few months ago Helena did tell Jake the he was THE Jason Morgan and that he was married to Sam Morgan. But of course, Helena used her mind manipulation to make Jake forget that important piece of information.
Helena’s latest mission for Jake is an order to kill Sam Morgan. Due to Sam’s impeccable instincts and P.I. skills, she has a huge hunch that Jake was the one that kidnapped her in order to distract the cops from Faison’s escape. Because Faison is the reason her husband Jason is believed to be dead, Sam won’t stop until she proves her instincts are right.
Sam and Patrick are on a date together and Sam cooked him a wonderful mean. The two have gotten past the lie Patrick told regarding Jason. They are moving forward with their relationship and taking their intimacy to the next level. As Sam and Patrick went upstairs, Jason walked right in her door. He is at Sam’s penthouse in an attempt to keep her quiet about the night Faison got away. Will he be able to go through with Helena’s orders to take Sam out?
General Hospital rumors suggest that Jake will start having memories of his true identity. Will he remembers he is Jason, Sam’s husband before it’s too late?
The mystery of Rosalie’s big secrethas been weighing on our minds for several months. Every time it seems like we were getting closer to the revelation, Rosalie would disappear from the canvas and we were left hanging time and time again. Now more than ever, General Hospital story lines seem to take an eternity to evolve and conclude. In the past year, stories have been written so that they linger on due to the fact that they are completely on hiatus and are not revisited for weeks at a time. That is absolutely what has happened with Rosalie’s secret. The writers at GH seem to be “taking turns” with the characters. Some characters will be up front and center for quite some time and then suddenly vanish from our screens. These characters are not written off the show, but rather just set aside for a later date. Most recently we have experienced this with Felicia’s election story line. It had been literally two months since this story commenced.
This week on General Hospital, we were finally able to get closer to Rosalie’s secret. She confessed to Michael that she isn’t actually a nurse. That she and Nina have been pretending that Rosalie is certified to care for others and give them medical attention as a nurse. If that didn’t seem juicy enough, there is definitely more to the story. Although it hasn’t come out of Rosalie’s mouth directly, it is safe to assume that Rosalie has a connection to Helena. Helena mentioned that she has someone on the inside working for ELQ that was getting hired on the spot. As the scene cut over, Michael and Rosalie were in a discussion about her starting to work for him. So is this part of Rosalie’s big secret? Rosalie is working for Helena and is going to help Helena take over ELQ from the inside. What more does Helena have up her sleeve for Rosalie?
Do you think there is more to this story? Does Rosalie’s secret go deeper than being Helena’s employee? Share your thoughts in the comment section!
It’s no secret that co-stars Chad Duell (Michael Corinthos) and Kristen Alderson (Kiki Jerome) are a couple on screen as well as off screen. The real life romantic life of Chad Duell and Kristen Alderson has captured the hearts of their fans through up close and personal photos via Instagram and tweets.
Since the news came out that Kristen Alderson is leaving General Hospital over the weekend, fans have been stirring, trying to figure out the full story.
General Hospital Blog previously reported that the actress will be making a video to explain the situation and why she is leaving GH. We do know though, thanks to real life boyfriend, Chad Duell, that it was definitely Kristen’s decision to leave the show, Alderson was not let go from General Hospital, but has decided to go in a different direction. Check out Chad’s tweet to Soap Opera Digest.
This weekend, General Hospital fans learned some shocking casting news regarding one of our favorites. Long time soap star Kristen Alderson has left General Hospital. Kristen played the role of Starr Manning on ABC’s now canceled One Life to Live since she was 6 years old. After the show got the ax, Kristen Alderson, Roger Howarth (ex-Todd Manning OLTL, Franco GH), and Michael Easton, (ex-John McBain OLTL, Silas Clay GH) joined the cast of General Hospital. Their origianl OLTL characters moved from Llanview to Port Charles and were building a life for themselves in their new city. However, a legal dispute between Prospect Park and ABC forced the execs at GH to chance the names of their characters.
Kristen Alderson has been on GH as Kiki Jerome since 2013. Over the weekend, social media has gone wild with the news that Alderson is ending her run on General Hospital. Kiki and Michael Corinthos recently broke up on the show, but in real life, Anderson and Chad Duell are still very much a couple.
Last night, Kristen sent out a tweet to her fans with a semi-cryptic message regarding this story. She wants her fans to know that she will explain the entire situation as soon as she is able to make a video for her announcement. Alderson expressed that simply tweeting they hows and whys just wasn’t enough, and that she would like to take more time to explain things to her fans. Check out the tweet below.
Sending out A TON TON TON of LOVE. Posting a video very very soon to explain everything. A tweet is way too small to show my appreciation.❤️
Shocking casting news has just hit the media. Long time soap actress Kristen Alderson joined the cast of General Hospital after One Life to Live was cancelled. Alderson played the iconic role of Starr Manning on OLTL until the ABC daytime drama met its demise. When she joined the cast at GH, she reprised the told of Starr, but because of legal issues with Proslect Park, the executives at GH were forced to change the character’s name. She became Kiki Jerome, daughter of Silas Clay (Michael Easton, ex- John McBain OLTL) and Ava Jerome (Maura West). She also co-starred with OLTL TV father Todd Manning played by Roger Howarth.
Soap Opera Digest has reported that Kristen Alderson will be wrapping up her role as Kiki Jerome very soon. the reason for Alderson’s departure has not yet been revealed. General Hospital Blog will keep fans updated on any information regarding this shocking GH casting shake up.
This past year has been the year for new characters coming and going from General Hospital. POrt Charles has been like Grand Central Station with all the old characters popping in and out of town, along with new faces to familiarize with. Lately it seems that every time we get used to seeing a new face, they disappear.
In 2014 we were introduced to Robb Derringer’s portrayal of Agent Kyle Sloan. He really has it out for Anna Devane, even still after they shared a dance on New Years Eve.
Sources report that Robb Derringer was let go by the executives at GH and the role of Agent Kyle Sloan has been recast. The role will now be played by aAs the World Turns alum, Grayson McCouch.
It’s no surprise that actress Lisa LoCicero who plays GH’s Olivia Falconeri is pregnant in real life. The actress revealed that she and her husband (Michael Patrick Jann) were expecting their second child, a girl. General Hospital Blog has previously reported the news of the star’s bundle on the way.
Since the announcement, fans have been wondering and General Hospital rumors have been floating around in regard to whether or not this will be written into the script. These GH rumors just might turn out to be true. On New Years Eve, Olivia and Julian slept together in attempt to forget about the ones their hearts are truly with. Ned and Alexis are currently giving their relationship another chance while Julian and Olivia watch from the sidelines.
Ned and Alexis may end up realizing that they are better as friends than they are together as lovers. Will it be too late for Ned to reciprocate Olivia’s feelings? Could Olivia be pregnant with Julian’s baby after their encounter on New Years Eve?
General Hospital has never had a better kept secret. Fan reactions range from all ends of the spectrum when discussing the never ending Fluke mystery. For a year now, residents of Port Charles along with General Hospital fans have been wondering who in the world could be impersonating Luke Spencer.
As far as the majority of the PC residents go, they think that Cesar Faison was the one duping the town for all those months. We the audience know that is not the case. Julian Jerome also knows that Cesar Faison is not actually Fluke, but merely a decoy to throw off Anna and the rest of the PCPD along with Tracy and Luke’s family and friends.
Luke’s sister, Bobbie Spencer has always had a close relationship with him. The two siblings have been through a lot together throughout the years. On today’s episode of GH, Bobbie was talking to who she thought was her brother. Unknowingly to Bobbie, he is still an impostor. In conversation, Bobbie brought up their cousin, Bill Eckert. Bill and Luke never really saw eye to eye, although the two were identical cousins. (Strange, we know). Judging from Fake Luke’s reaction when Bobbie was talking about Bill in a negative way, even bringing up the way he treated his son Sly, there is reason to believe that the Luke impostor may be Bill, Sly, or have some ties to that story line involvement.
General Hospital rumors have claimed Bill Eckert to be a great explanation for someone being able to run around town with Luke’s face and body for all this time. Since there wouldn’t have to be any plastic surgery or masks involved, it seems to make perfect sense. Of course, like every other theory fans have had, there are holes in this one as well. Such as the fact that Bill Eckert died some time ago. We all know that soap opera death is never permanent, and there is a very likely chance that Bill could have resurrected from the dead and stolen his identical cousin’s identity -and life.
Do you think the writers are getting closer to revealing Fluke’s true identity? Could Bobbie and Fluke’s scene today have dropped the bomb? Let us know if you think Fluke is actually Bill Eckert.
Just as we thought the whole Fluke story couldn’t get any more frustrating and complicated, it turns out that a new aspect in the story does just that.
General Hospital spoilers reveal that for the week of January 5th, the audience will learn that the Spencer family is hiding a secret. Luke’s sister Bobbie Spencer, has a conversation with Fluke, and they are in deep discussion about an old family secret that has been kept under wraps for many years.
General Hospital spoilers also state that Bobbie shares a secret with her grandson, Michael Corinthos, who is now working on turning the old Brownstones into a clinic. Does Bobbie’s secret have anything to do with that old building?
